The Student Incidental Fees Committee Records document budget requests, reviews, and recommendations for funding provided to Oregon State University units and student-led organizations from student incidental fees. The records include general information and guidelines for the student fee funding process, minutes and agendas for committee meetings, draft budgets, and voting records.

The bulk of the records consist of materials supporting annual funding requests from OSU units including Intercollegiate Athletics, Memorial Union, Recreational Sports, Student Health Services, Counseling and Psychological Services, Student Involvement, and the Associated Students of OSU. Funding requests to support programs and activities pertaining to diversity, recycling, sustainability, childcare (Our Little Village), music, veterans, and athletic facilities (such as Raising Reser) are represented in the collection. Records pertaining to funding for the Corvallis Transit System, the Human Services Resource Center, and Intercultural Student Services are also included.

The collection also includes Fee Books for 1993-1994 through 1996-1997 and limited information about allocation of the technology resource fee. Of special note is a history of auxiliary operations and student fee funding at Oregon State University that was prepared in about 2000. A 2009 report from the Special Committee for Student Fee Strategic Planning is also available in the collection.
